John McEachran of Perham will be honored at the Minnesota Football Coaches Association (MFCA) 49th Annual Football Hall of Fame Banquet on Saturday, April 6.

The Butch Nash award is given by the MFCA to the top assistant coaches in the state.

According to Perham head football coach Mike Jordahl, only eight of these awards are given out each year with hundreds of assistant coaches on staffs throughout the state.

This year's other recipients include: Dave Larson of Hutchinson, Paul Ruud of Glencoe-Silver Lake, Roger Lindahl of Benson, Marc Achterkirch of Owatonna, Daren Sagedahl of BOLD and John Jensen of Rochester Lourdes and Mark Elmer of Stillwarter.

McEachran will also be receiving a 40 years of service award at the banquet.

"The way he looks and the way he coaches, he may be ready for another 40 years of coaching," Jordahl said.

The April event will also showcase the Conference, Section, Class and State Coaches of the Year, along with the Assistant Coach of the Year award and Hall of Fame inductions.
